🎃Happy (soon) Halloween! + PFM ‘spooky’ chibis🎃

As you can see, I am still trying to find a chibi-esque design I don’t absolutely hate, and I think I am close? That aside, those and some other designs I have will soon be available as stickers. Stay tuned!

As for progress, I’ll have the second batch of Fictober snippets and the FMO update ...

Fictober 2023 prompts #1

# 1 “It’s not too late, let’s go.” - Rez

The majority of Mastravisch’s guards, while certainly not loyal, are dutiful. Whether out of dread or piety, those from the royal cavalry selected to secure the palace follow Mastravisch’s every desire as though they were holy.

The fear of suffering is as good a motivator as greed, perhaps even better. Th...

I am officially done with commissions, and even if I do get a small one here or there, it won't affect my workflow now! I really enjoyed having weekly updates, so I'd like to stick to that for however long I am able to. 😊

As for the progress, today I finished adding the last (hopefully) edits to FMO's chapter 3, and I am back to writing the next update. Also, I should have the first ba...

My gosh, Patreon's layout is so different (but neat) I am like all over the place. 

Anyways, quick progress:

- I am finishing Mirren's scene and the merge one, both will be up this week,

- I found something called Fictober, and obviously ...

A quick progress update:

- Malitiose's POV is up,

- added a few lines to Saltire’s scene, 

- Malitiose’s and Rez’s scenes are written. 

Malitiose's romance-y scene plays out a bit differently depending on your personality trait, and so will Mirren's. Altruistic MC is more honest and willing to negotiate, while self-serving is withdrawn an...

Long-ish Devlog

Progress:

Today’s FMO update is ~5k long. In it, more about MC’s past (pre-death), and a new branching. To get the new scenes, instead of going with Lotár you need to stay with Saltire and Malitiose when prompted. Later, you’ll get a scene (different for platonic vs romantic route) for either Malitiose, Saltire, Mirren, or Rez. Saltire’s scene is included...

PFM #reunion scene - Reed

If your life was a book, it would undoubtedly be titled ‘Without a plan.’ That’s how you find yourself in Elazar, weeks before the due date. After walking two hours to the nearest bus stop amidst nothing but fields, then spending another two in a rickety vehicle, you’re here. Free. And somehow, you’re more lost now that you’re not alone.

The sleazy sub-central district looks a...

A quick devlog to a)let you know I am doing 👌👌👌 and b)tell you what I have in store for this month. Let's go!  

Tomorrow (my time), I'll have a fresh snippet for you, with Reed this time. I wanted to post it today, but it got longer than expected (5 pages of just the base draft yall), and I don't want to cut it into portions (or stay up till 3 am, again, ahahaha). It'll be t...

PFM #'What if' snippet - Laurent x MC, academy for fives

A woman dressed in white medical garb holds you down on the examination couch. The large device to which you are connected by a myriad of cords beep beep beeps out of tune with your rapid pulse. Another machine rumbles like static.

The odor of chemicals is calming, though it burns your already red from crying eyes. Your mouth tastes chalky from the pills they have you chew on. Yo...

I know you're not here to listen to my bs so I'll keep it short. Three weeks ago, when I learned that FaeAU DLC was spread around on a pirate site, it really got to me, because I am not a huge studio that makes tons of cash off my games, and the 5usd it is priced at is a lot to me, especially currently. These past months I had to spend a lot of money on my family situation. Earlier I blew my sa...

The extended chapter 2 is updated, it contains the fixed public release, the bit post demo with all fixes. The BETA version was re-uploaded as well. 

Adding all the fixes and edits (and that with my friend's HUGE help) took me a full day, and we fixed the last variables today as well, but now chapter 1 + 2 are polished.  

New FMO content soon, more Lotar, Mal, and Saltire,...

OC Kiss Prompts FMO 2/2

*post- or mid-game, intended to follow the first ending, but it might fit anywhere. Prompts: ‘food’ for Malitiose, and ‘nostalgic’ for Saltire.

Noticing the galore of blue ethereal lights shining through the dense leafage of the pushcha, you prepare yourself for an encounter with a wilder, stomping silently through the bushes so as to not make a sound.

Stumbling towards the car, swallowing down the chilly air and yet another fit of laughter, you try to balance Alan, your coat, his suitcase, and a bottle of expensive champagne you took for the road without losing either of these treasures.

Okay, I know better now than to try estimating the length of the chapter(s) when I clearly have no self-control and keep adding to them. Chapter 2 of FMO is done, longer than I thought, but finally fully written. I scrapped like 2 scenes, but I might end up adding them later, not sure yet. The second part is nearly a whooping 20k, so there. I can finally focus on something else for a change, li...

A quick one today. I just got back home. We had another family emergency regarding my grandmother. I didn’t even get to pack my laptop, so I am out of the loop.

Early access of chapter 2 of Avulsion will be up in a few days, but bear in mind that it’ll be the Ren’Py version still. It will be the last Ren’Py update, and the future chapters will be coded exclusively in Twine. I’ll post the file as soon as it’s done. The same goes for FMO. The GUI is mostly done - it looks the same as in Ren’py, but prettier and with more fun things added.

The soirĂ©e is crowded, but not jam-packed enough for you to miss Laurent’s entrance. It’s not that it’s particularly memorable - the parting sea of people aside - looking from behind, Laurent is just another guest in a dark suit, completely unremarkable.

Perhaps more so than his scent, that cuts like a whip through the dense air of the room, y...

AMAZING news! My friend is going to help me code FMO and Avulsion in Twine, so that will solve ALL the issues with wonky font etc!!! It might take a while as she’s doing it solo, but it will be SO worth it, I am insanely stoked, and I am sure you will be too! She'll also add stuff I couldn't even hope to code like extra pronouns etc, but also the long-awaited for some option to set the gender...
